I noticed a very small amount of blood when I blew my nose this morning? I wondered if these are a symptom of a brain tumour. I posted here last week about some headaches I was getting, these have in the most part got better since Thursday. A few weeks ago I had a blocked Eustachian tube in my ear as well (which is basically when the tube can't open to drain the ear). I think these has got better now because I can't hear the wind sounds in my ear anymore. However, I just read an article about a women with a brain tumour who Doctors sent to ENT because she had a similar problem but hers was actually a brain tumour. Hers didn't really get better, but I'm concerned now that it might be a common thing that happens with a brain tumour.

Nose bleeds can be a sign of leukaemia as far as I know, but not just a few, if you're getting lots of them that's a bad sign. One is nothing to worry about:)

Mostly they're a sign that you burst a small blood vessel when you blew your nose.
